This module is designed to contribute to the reduction of environmental burden and the realization of sustainable production in tropical and subtropical agricultural production areas by effectively utilizing shredded paper as a new agricultural recycling resource. Specifically, the module aims to conserve soil, secure habitats for organisms, and reduce the use of pesticides and fertilizers, thereby contributing to the conservation of biodiversity. The module also envisions the realization of biodiversity conservation in agricultural production ecosystems in tropical and subtropical countries through the agricultural recycling of shredded paper. Shredded paper is a waste product that is widely generated by households and businesses. It is currently incinerated without being used as a raw material for recycled paper. On the other hand, a large amount of natural resources are used for agricultural fertilizers and materials、 and some of them have a high environmental burden. In response to these issues, a new module for the effective utilization of shredded paper as a new agricultural recycling resource was developed.
